Former Raptors big man Andrea Bargnani faces his former teammates tonight when the New York Knicks host Toronto at Madison Square Garden tonight. Bargnani was selected first overall by the Raptors in the 2006 NBA Draft and played seven seasons with Toronto before he was traded to the Knicks in the offseason. You can watch the game on TSN2 at 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt. The Raptors are in the midst of playing eight of 10 games on the road and will wrap up a four-game trek tonight. They had won two in a row and four of five games until a 112-99 loss against the San Antonio Spurs. Kyle Lowry and Terrence Ross scored 23 points apiece, while DeMar DeRozan added 13 points and seven boards. "Theyre a really good team," Lowry said of the Spurs. "Their players are hall-of-famers, they have a hall-of-fame coach." Lowry has scored 20-plus points in three straight games. Toronto has a 7-7 mark as the guest and its next 11 games will be against Eastern Conference foes. It has won four of five on the road. The banged-up New York Knicks can make up some ground in the weak Atlantic Division when they begin a home-and-home set against Raptors tonight. The Knicks are just three games behind the division-leading Raptors with a woeful 9-19 mark and head coach Mike Woodson is looking forward to the possibility of moving up in the Atlantic. "Were sitting here at three games out, and in our last 12 were 6-6, so we are playing a little bit better basketball based on all the injuries that weve had," Woodson said Thursday. "But tomorrows game is an important game because they (Raptors) sit at the top of the division." Woodson is hoping to have star Carmelo Anthony, the second-leading scorer in the league with 26.3 points per game, in uniform versus Toronto. Anthony is nursing an ankle injury and is day-to-day, according to Woodson. Woodson said Thursday he will see where Anthony is at treatment wise and go from there. "If he says hes ready to go, then well put him in uniform and play him," Woodson noted. Anthony, who suffered the injury in the third quarter of Mondays win against the Orlando Magic. missed a 123-94 drubbing at the hands of the Oklahoma City Thunder on Christmas Day. Amare Stoudemire led the Knicks with 22 points, Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 21 points and J.R. Smith tallied 20 for New York, which lost every quarter and gave up 67 points to Kevin Durant (29), Russell Westbrook (14) and Serge Ibaka (24). Knicks point guard Raymond Felton did not play due to a right groin strain and is expected miss Fridays game. Forward Metta World Peace (knee) is questionable versus the Raptors. New York is 4-11 at MSG this season. The Raptors and Knicks split four games last season and the past 16 meetings between the teams. Jordan Henderson Jersey .

John Brown caught a 13-yard scoring pass from Carson Palmer with 2:25 to play, and the Arizona Cardinals rallied to beat the San Diego Chargers 18-17 on Monday night. Brown took the short toss in the flat and eluded tacklers into the end zone, capping an 11-play, 91-yard drive. Arizona trailed 17-6 after three quarters. Jerry Attaochu blocked a punt and forced a fumble, setting up 10 Chargers points. With his team trailing 6-3 at the half, San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers went 6 for 6 for 82 yards on a drive to open the second half. His six-yard pass to Malcom Floyd for the TD put the Chargers ahead 10-6. After Attaochu forced Palmers fumble, Ryan Mathews ran 20 yards for a touchdown that made it 17-6. The Cardinals finally got a touchdown on a 10-play, 64-yard drive. Palmer scrambled and then tossed five yards to Stepfan Taylor to cut the lead to 17-12 with 12:30 to play. The two-point conversion try failed. After the ensuing kickoff, the Chargers appeared to be headed for at least a field goal, but the centre snap bounced off of Rivers, and by the time he fell on the ball, San Diego was out of field-goal range. The Cardinals took the punt at their 9-yard line with 6:50 to go and mounted the long scoring march. Arizona rookie Chandler Catanzaro kicked field goals of 44 and 22 yards. The Cardinalss had a 211-108 advantage in yards in the first two quarters but led only 6-3 on Catanzaros 44-yarder as the half ended.dddddddddddd Jerraud Powers intercepted Rivers pass at the Arizona 44 with 16 seconds left in the half. Palmer threw five yards to Andre Ellington, then 2 yards to Ted Ginn Jr. to set up the kick. Arizona scored first on Catanzaros 22-yard field goal with 12:42 left in the first half. San Diegos lone first-half score came after Drew Butlers punt was blocked by Attaochu. Butler had been signed earlier Monday and took the place of regular punter Dave Zastudil, who was out with a groin injury. Again, Arizonas defence shut down the Chargers, and Nick Novaks 36-yard field goal tied it 3-3 with six minutes to play. The only big play of the first quarter was Palmers long pass that hit Michael Floyd in stride for a 63-yard gain to the Chargers 28. But two plays later, Marcus Gilchrist wrestled the ball away from Andre Ellington. The ball bounced downfield, where Arizona tackle Bobby Massie tried to pick up the ball rather than fall on it. Initially, officials ruled Massie had recovered, but Chargers coach Mike McCoy challenged and the call was reversed. Donald Butler recovered the ball for San Diego at the Chargers 28. Arizonas Larry Fitzgerald caught one pass with 4:04 to play to keep alive his streak of at least one reception in 150 consecutive games. ' ' '
